screenshortartist would know that. it doesn't look like like it been completed and its got to be a single laned one as well.

So dumb they don't even put all all projects photos either. everything that this government does sucks. Its a cursed government, anything they tough, becomes cursed.

This was one of the first road rehabilitation projects in the country. If they cannot rehabilitate – not construct but rehabilitate – a 30 km- long-single lane road in three years, then something is really wrong with this government. In any case, it is laughable beyond words.

This government is in sane.

the Kisangani-Beni 800 km road is financed by World bank, though its the Chinese company that got to do the work. The Bukavu-Kamituga-Kasongo road is also World Bank Financed and its Chinese doing the work.

The Matadi-Kin road, financed by EU and executed by Chinese. This N'sele-Kenge-Kwango-Kiwit is also EU financed and executed by Chinese and French.

You wonder where are the Chinese roads? Lubumbashi-Kasenga, Lu'shi-Kasumbalesa and thats all.
